The quadratic formula is:

 

x=b±b24ac2a

 

Your equation only has complex roots:

3×x26×x+11=0{x=(2×6×i3)3x=(2×6×i+3)3}{x=(0.999999999999821+1.6329931618546063i)x=0.999999999999821+1.6329931618546063i}

 

The calculator here has introduced some rounding error; the 0.99999.... parts should be exactly 1

No real solutions...

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
3x2−6x+11=0
Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=3, b=-6, c=11.
x=−b±b2−4ac2a
x=−(−6)±(−6)2−4(3)(11)2(3)
x=6±−966
